On Wednesday 8th December Hilary Lucette and Margaret Weaver joined hundreds(literally) of West kent Members in the County Carol Service. It was a wonderful service of lessons and Carols. We were led by a special WI Choir ( formed for this event) which included our president Val Williams -
Second from the right, with her mouth open - in full voice.
As well as old favourites that we all sang, the Choir sang modern carols by John Rutter, Michael Barrett. A few Men had been asked to join the choir which added to the tone and included one carol by these gentlemen only - Processional Alleluia by Victor C Johnson. Margaret and Hilary also enjoyed a couple of hours in the High Street, taking the opportunity to spend quite some time in the various craft shops with a quick stop for a sandwich in the Visitor Centre. A really good day!
We discovered free parking near Rochester Castle, which has a German Christmas Market over this period which we are sure is worth a visit.
